フェルラッハの洞窟・トップ13

12世紀頃、ドラーヴァ川の渡河地点とロイブル峠へ続く交易路を監視する戦略的拠点として建設されました。この建物は、1348年の大地震、トルコ軍の侵攻、落雷による火災を乗り越えてきました。16世紀末、ディートリヒシュタイン家がルネサンス様式に改築し、2階建てのアーケードを備えた美しい中庭などが加えられました。興味深いことに、1913年以来、この城は有名なヴィトゲンシュタイン家（天才哲学者ルートヴィヒ・ヴィトゲンシュタインの出身家）が所有しています。内部は私有地のため一般公開されることは稀ですが、下から見上げる門や塔の姿は圧巻です。トレイルの途中で、雰囲気のある記念写真を撮るのに最適な場所です。

1348年の地震により城は一部破壊されましたが、すぐに再建されました。1349年には、Hollenburgが地方長官の所在地として証明されています。

The freely accessible Hochwart Castle ruins, also known as the "Black Castle," serve as a reminder of the dramatic end of the once mighty fortress of the Counts of Celje, whose line died out in 1456. Destroyed in a succession dispute, the castle was never rebuilt; today, parts of the main tower and walls of the 12th-century chapel still stand in the forest. However, the ruins are unsecured and at risk of collapse, situated partly on steep slopes, and the last 600 meters are only accessible on foot.

The most coveted spot on Lake Wörthersee is undoubtedly the Maria Loretto peninsula in Klagenfurt's eastern bay. This magical place manages to bridge the gap between pristine nature and opulent festivities. Anyone who has experienced the Lendspitz nature reserve or witnessed the breathtaking view from Maria Loretto Castle will fall in love with this narrow gem forever. Whether it's a photo spot for a wedding or pure romance away from the crowds – everyone can escape the everyday here. Its high recreational value makes this peninsula the place to be! Anyone who has experienced the Lendspitz nature reserve or seen the breathtaking view from Maria Loretto Castle will fall in love with this narrow gem forever.

In this place, you can let go of time. Not because it passes too quickly, but because it ceases to be important. On the Maria Loretto peninsula, the world seems to whisper instead of speak. The water sparkles as reliably as an old poem that you want to reread again and again. Palm trees and plane trees share the view of the shore, while the castle stands discreetly in the background – as if it knew its impact and no longer needed to prove it. Here, you take off your shoes because the gravel path suggests it. You sit down on a marble bench, perhaps drink a glass of wine in the shade of the linden trees, or simply dip your feet in the turquoise water. And suddenly you understand why people used to build avenues to the lake: not out of a desire for representation, but to create a dignified path to happiness. If you're in a hurry, it's best to stay outside. If you have the heart for it, you can enter.

The oldest part of the castle is the square Romanesque tower in the northwestern part. Later, a Gothic palace with living quarters on four floors was built in the opposite part. In the 16th century, a central Renaissance palace with an inner courtyard was built between the two buildings. The southern slope below the castle was intended for terraced gardens, and in the lower part there was a complex of outbuildings with a mill and sawmill.

Grad Kamen / Kamen Castle, Zijalka Kamen Castle (German: Burg Stein) was built in the 12th century by the Counts of Ortenburg. It later became the property of the Counts of Cilli and in 1469 it passed into the possession of the Counts of Lamberg. In the 18th century, the counts gave up the castle and moved to the more comfortable Katzenstein Castle in the center of Begunje.

Lake Bled / Bled Lake Formation of the Lake The unique shape of the lake as we know it today is no coincidence. Its location once occupied a tectonic basin, carved out over the years by the Bohinj Glacier. Its path was obstructed by an enormous rock, which it eroded so persistently that only the current island remained. The ice melted, the basin flooded with water, and Lake Bled was formed. With depths of up to 30 meters in some places, it is a delight for divers. The lake is home to 19 different species of fish, including carp, catfish, and lake trout, and its surface is home to ducks, swans, and a diverse range of vegetation.
